Nickname for his model: Plum Pudding Model (or Raisin Bread Model) Description of his model: Thomsonâs model was known as the Plum Pudding Modelâ (or Raisin Bread Model.) As each atom was a sphere filled with a positively charged fluid, known as the âpuddingâ. Scattered in this fluid were negatively charged electrons, these were the âplumsâ in the pudding.
The top structure shows how the alpha particles would have passed through the gold foil atoms if the plum pudding model was correct in its assumptions. The bottom structure shows what Rutherford and his collogues observed and is the true depiction of an atom's structure.
